This striking double-fronted Victorian villa, a link detached property, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment, as it comes to market for the first time since 1975. While several improvements have been made over the years, including roof recoveries, the home now requires a comprehensive refurbishment to bring it back to its full potential. With rich original features and spacious living areas, it offers an excellent canvas for customization according to personal taste.
The flexible layout includes a welcoming entrance hall that leads into a generous sitting room spanning the depth of the house. Adjacent to this are the dining room and breakfast room, with an adjoining kitchen, utility area, and shower room that provide ample functional space. A conservatory adds further light and access to the outdoors. The first floor comprises an elegant landing that accesses three sizable double bedrooms along with a cloakroom and study. A bathroom occupies another section of this level along with an inner hallway leading back down via a secondary staircase to the kitchen area and beyond to a fourth bedroom.
The exterior features a charming front garden characterized by an original encaustic tiled pathway, while side access allows entry to the rear walled garden that benefits from a westerly aspect and includes two outbuildings.
Located on Albert Road in a desirable residential area just south of the Royal Military Canal and close to local amenities including independent shops and restaurants, this property is strategically positioned for both community living and convenience. The nearby seafront offers leisure options while educational facilities are plentiful within walking distance. Excellent transport links further enhance its appeal for those commuting or traveling abroad.
